What type of inverts do you have?
Almost looks more like Damsel spawn to me?
 
I have several small fighting conchs, margarita snails, 4 blue legged hermits, a cleaner shrimp, two astrea snails, and a bunch of asterina starfish

That does look like a sea cucumber. As luck would have it the bowl offers no contrast to see details lol.
 
Yeah it's a cucumber, very cool. Usually their egg mass are stringy and gelatin like, hmmm very interesting. Out of curiosity where did you get your rock or live sand, perhaps we can track down an ID.
 
THis is an apodid sea cucumber! Safe and will help with detritus troubles!
